* OrderCorrection annotation may be specified together with {@linkplain jakarta.persistence.OrderColumn} annotation.
* Its {@linkplain OrderCorrectionType} value defines what should be done in case
* the order list read from the database is invalid
* (has nulls, duplicates, negative values, values greater/equal to list size -
* the only valid order list of n elements is: {0, 1,..., n-1}).
*
* If the annotation is not specified then {@linkplain OrderCorrectionType#READ_WRITE} used.
